Your Barbaro "China doll" comment is perhaps the dumbest thing I have ever read. Get a life.

I also got a chuckle out of the Barbaro/China Doll comment. But I wouldn't think it's far dumber than some of the other comments on this thread, a couple of yours included. You've gone far out of your way to be critical of others discussing a colt's impressive debut. You were wrong about the colt being 3/5 (paid $4.20) and you're probably wrong about him being 6/5 in the Sanford.

It's really meaningless to infer or say as you did that a debut at 5.5f is useless for a 2yo in terms of prepping for his 3yo season. Next year is so far away that sort of comment sounds silly to me. It's obvious the colt was ready and Pletcher decided -- correctly -- that yesterday's race was the right place to start.

Nobody proclaimed him a Triple Crown winner. He's just a very nice colt who ran a super debut.

good luck.
